Thank you for the video. As a Swede this is something that comes so unintuitively to me. Finns probably already know this about Swedish but the Scandinavian languages are very unique amongst western languages because we don't have first, second and third person distinctions in the same way that English does. Jag är - Minä olen - I am Du är - Sinä olet - You are Hen är - Hän on - He/she is
Fun fact: Here “ei” or “eii” is a slang version of “yes” so it was so funny (and confusing) hearing Finns answering just “no” 😵💫 Thank you for this great video Kat!
Thank you again for your support to us ❤ I enjoy listening to your video while not looking at the screen and managing to understand the Finnish portion. It makes me feel smart 😁
The exception at 3:25 comes from the habit of using passiivi with "me". For most verbs the negative passive form is the same as the infinitive (saada - saadaan - ei saada, tulla - tullaan - ei tulla, juosta - juostaan - ei juosta, tarvita - tarvitaan - ei tarvita), it only differs for type 1 verbs (huutaa - huudetaan - ei huudeta, istua - istutaan - ei istuta). So "me ei infinitive" is a slightly simplified passive, with the bare infinitive being used for all verbs. What's more interesting is why the present tense uses the expected negative form (stem + the tense marker) but the imperfect uses a participle (minä en kertonut instead of minä en kertoi) :)
As a native Finnish speaker, I always intuitively considered the -TAAN/-DAAN/etc. part of the passive forms as the actual passive marker, and I considered the negative passive -TA/-DA/etc. forms to be based on that and just coincidentally being sometimes identical to the "basic" A-infinitive forms of the verbs. I would also note that the active (as opposed to passive) negative forms of Finnish verbs are identical to the singular imperative forms, and thus presumably have a common origin. So they are not actually made the way that Kat teaches them here among native Finnish speakers, as with the passive forms, but Kat has to base her teaching on things that basic level non-native learners know. As for the -NUT participle being used in the negative imperfect tense, it is of course similar to the perfect and plusquamperfect tenses but without the verb "olla", so I would guess off the top of my head that the negative imperfect's origin is similar to those.

Thankyou for your content. For me the me form surprised me.
Yes, it's quite different from the rest!

Nice video katja. Beware though that verbs have an infinitive as basic form, not a nominative. Good video!
kiitos videosta. Rakastan puhekieli, jota lisäät videoihisi.
Kiva kuulla, että se auttaa :)

kiitos paljon! ❤❤
Oho, tällainenkin kanava olemassa, aika kiva. Vaimo voisi tästä oppia kieltä. Terveisiä DDR:stä!
Olen iloinen että opetat suomea monikansalliselle yleisöllesi. Se, jos mikä, on somen posiitivista hyödyntämistä!
Kiitos paljon!
Partitiivi pls.tnx
Shouldn't be it pronoun+Et+verb instead of el 1:58 i guess it's typo mistake
It is ei which is the negative in finnish language, so it is correct.
Sorry I wrote ei in capital letters so it looks like el :/
Oonkoha ainoo kuka kattoo näit iha muute vaa😅
Älä mene
I didn’t understand almost anything, even though Finnish is my native language.
